Hurricane Ike screw up your team this week?

Not sure what forum is best for this topic, but my opponent has a Derrick Mason (Baltimore - WR). They were scheduled to play today but guess the game has been postponed due to the Hurricane Ike Will he get screwed for this I wonder?

A guy in my league had Schaub, McGahee, Andre Johnson and the Ravens D. Unfortunately, he had all of his eggs in one basket and failed to make any lineup changes. Yikes!

Yeah, I had Andre Johnson, but a big game from him wouldn't have made a difference for me, considering Turner, Cotchery & V. Davis didn't do much today.

Ouch! I wonder how this works... if you selected a player on one of the hurricane teams can you change to another player if you have someone by Monday?

This is turning out to be another weird year in football...

Most leagues allow you to make lineup changes up until game time, but at this point only Eagles or Cowboys could help you.

In one of my leagues, one team owner did not change his starting DEF (Baltimore DEF - the owner was out of town), so this morning his opponent benched his own starting DEF (NE) to make it more fair. It was pretty interesting.

I informed owners playhing against me of the change....it looks like one of them could beat me as a result. Oh, well. I hope good karma comes my way.

those high winds and cinci and cleveland also hurt me a little. I had to play Housh during 40 mph wind gusts.

I lost my WR#1, Andre Johnson this week because of Ike. Thankfully, Vincent Jackson put up 13 points in his absence.
